Religion / Re: Investigation Of Hardmirror's Claims In "Pastor To Atheist" Threads by nynbrada: 3:31am On Nov 22, 2016 |
authhor=hopefulLandlord post=51239292] Hardmirror created the thread https://www.nairaland.com/3078223/pastor-atheist-why-never-christian on April 30 2016 which details his journey from being a pastor who performed miracles to atheism and right now has a total of 43,624 Views Young man stop trying to make a case on the affirmative for that fraud of a fella. As there is no serious minded Christian that has a living relationship with God that will ever take that guy serious; as the op of that thread is riddled with so many spurious claims, inconsistencies and even theological blunders. I certainly do not have the time and energy to engage myself in the tedium of going through that thread that is presently 50+ pages to pinpoint his many lies. So hopefulLandlord, just be rest assured that, that thread of his was specifically desinged to rattle and unsettle "baby" and unserious Christians. If you are in doubt about my position then check out @ the bolded. This is a fella that claimed to have performed miracles when he was a Christian, yet he cannot tell us the miracles he performed. What do you call such a person? A liar and fraud. So creating this thread to insinuate that Christians called him a liar without being able to show him to be one is totally incorrect. If you feel i'm the one lying, then please kindly supply us with the miracles that he purportedly performed from his claims in that thread. Or better still, you can give him the grand honour to do that. On a final note i will reitirate my previous stance in that thread, and it is this - hardmirror was a young Christian, who wasn't grounded in God's word. And in his zeal for God, he stumbled over stuffs that the average Christian stumbles over himself, gets up and dust himself because he or she has the word of God in them and are humble and obedient and they trust the LORD to come through for them in such trying period and He does without fail in his own time and manner. But in hardmirror's case, instead of humbly trusting in the LORD, by reaching out in faith to Him, he became proud and conceited, wanting to challenge God's authority by applying banal LOGIC, that is eternally doomed to fail and kept wallowing in that place of defeat that finally marked to be the beginning of the end in his journey with God. What a pathetic place to find yourself in. Let me stop here biko, there is so much to be said but of what use is it. @ HopefulLandord, if you will heed my advice, i'll counsel you cool down for God you creator. Atheism is an INTELLECTUAL FRAUD. 15 Likes 2 Shares |
Religion / Re: From Atheism To Jesus: My Testimony by nynbrada: 9:10pm On Aug 30, 2016 |
LightandDarkness:Very correct. You don't have to be a Christian to be a good person. It is infact possible to be a good person with a good life outside Christian by "God" or anyone's standard. I disagree @ the bolded, that's fallacy of false equivalence. As you are trying to describe a situation of logical and apparent equivalence, when in fact there is non. This is simply a logical impossibility if we take into account the definition and concept of God. Simply put, he is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. The eternal self existing supreme being that created time and space and the entire universe and everything therein. Now with this definition, tell me, how is it possible for a mortal being of your nature with frail human composition and limited sense of judgement on what is universally true and moral, to have a moral standard that equates that of God. For this to happen it is either you are God or you have an absolute sense of what is universally true and morally rigth and wrong. Of course we know you ain't got any of these. Also, to dissapoint you a little, God is not a moral God but a righteous God. Simply put, morality is a concept of human construct. It is a sub set within God's law of what is rigth or wrong. To elucidiate, someone may be entangled with a particular bad habit e.g, being a kleptomaniac. Now on face value moral guage, this is an obvious moral lapse by all standard. But are you aware that such a one might actually pass God's guage of (moral) rectitude? While on our own human judgement such a person can only be such a social despicable oddity. Now the following reason will suffice for while such character flaw may be condoned by God. If the person in question always feels remorsed from his or her heart of heart and is making sincere and committed effort in breaking loose from this moral flaw. This condition holds true for the Christian person and any non Christian who for whatever reason has never heard the message of salvation found only in Christ. Two similar but sligtly different examples in the Bible of God's sense of moral judgement differing from that of man can be found in the story of Lot and his two daugthers and also Judah and his daugther in-law. The reason for this response, is to show you and other Atheists that God sense of judgement on right and wrong may be diametrically opposed to that of man. Therefore no matter how morally right you guys may seemingly claim to be in your own limited sense of morality, it can never measure to that of God. Hence you guys should quit your futile effort in tryiny to analysize and box God in within your limited and skewed moral compass. Religion doesn't and will nevery make a bad person good unless they want to be. You are both right and wrong. Right in the sense that there must first be a willing and sincere heart desiring for a change in a positve way. And wrong for your circular reasoning in inferring that religion itself doesn't and will never make a bad person good. As there are countless individauls who where only able to right their moral flaws only when they came in contact with certain religion with particular moral code that gave them a new sense of moral compass. The Op himself is a living evidence for you. He has manifestly made it clear that he led a terrible lifestyle and couldn't turn around not untill he found Christ, the king of glory and not just him but myself and many others. Interestingly I see Christians consistently fail to live up to that God's standard of morality, lying fornicating murdering etc and the only reason why they think it's not wrong per second is that all they have to do is ask for forgiveness. Firstly, you will be wrong to think that the only reason some of them fail to live a consistent Christian life is because all they have to do is ask for forgiveness, after the Bible clearly teaches in the book of,, 1 John 3:9 -whosover is born of God does not commit[make a practice of] of sin; for his seed remaineth in him and he cannot sin because he is born of God So any Christian who after reading this, then thinks he or she can keep perpetuating a life of sinfulness without any sincere and determined effort to correct it is only living a life of self delusion and there are plethoral of scriptures in the Bible admonishing us to desist and abstain from any appearance of evil. And that those who draw back to a life of sinfulness will not inherit the kingdom of God. Even apostle Paul got up talks of how he disciplines his body and puts it in check so that wont be a cast away after he might must have finished preaching to others. 2 Likes |

Owliver: Bruh, cool down nah! I want to believe you asked this question from a sincere heart to learn. And that is the reason i've bothered myself to reply you. Now in answering your question, the obvious thing here that gave rise to your question is actually your poor understanding of the scripture,(please no insult intended) just as you have infered that - from the creation narrative God had no intention of creating Eve. But a careful perusing of the Bible actually proved otherwise as seen here in,,,, Gen 1:27 - So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;male and female created he them. 28 - And God blessed them, and God said unto them be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the face of the earth, and subdue it,......KJV. From the above portion of the scripture it is clear that God had every intention from the beginning to create them male and female. I know you probably got your idea from the narratives in chapter 2, about God saying it is not good for the man to be alone. But this does not in any way negate the fact that God originally intended to have them male and female as shown in the scripture above. Shalom. 1 Like |

And what?? You actually expect me to start arguing with you back and forth on what faith is and is not. After i had succintly explained what faith is from a Christian/scriptural perspective. Quoting from the Bible to give a scriptural definition of it and even paraphrasing it in laymans language for any would be reader to understand. Then it is obvios that you are suffering from chronic low comprehension disorder,,........like i was even expecting any of them pillock to have a grasp of it in the first place. And to even think that you had the temerity to come up with that lame and infantile piffle of the bible contradicting Gods constituent nature,,,,leele, so i should start engaging a harbinger of terminnal cognitive distortion on a mundane merry-go-round about whether God is good/perfect.....then they will come up with their demonic customized line,,,......if God is good/perfect/all powerful,,... why are so many destitute children dying in hunger all over the world,,....why didn't he stop the tsunami catastrophe in Asia,,,...why will he burn his creation in hell for not worshiping him, after he gave them free will,,...bla,,bla,..bla,...why did he allow buhari to come to power,,,why did he allow nepa to take light,,,bla,,,,,......bla,....mtcheeeeeeew!

To begin with, please if it is possible always try to make your Op as brief and concise as possible. This long epistle of yours always get me bored and discouraged to want to read through and respond to your critique of biblical issues. What?? For heaven sake is this a scholary/academic piece for a masters or Phd programm. johnydon22:very correct. Is this profession of Faith a Virtue or Lunacy?Good. In a way Faith deals with emotion which drives the conviction to be stuck to whether it is true or not.Very wrong. Definist fallacy at play here. From what you just implied, it is obvious that you've got a very poor understanding of what the concept of faith entails and also you ended up contradicting your definition of faith ab initio. Now let me help you out with what faith is, seeing you are a carnal man untrained on the issues of faith, hence an impostor trying to occupy a position of authority on an issue, that he is nothing but a charlatan. Just so you know, in christianity, faith is a virtue that is employed by man to access a distinct realm of life that transcends his natural world. A virtue that is anchored on a belief in a supreme/divine being who is Omniscient,Omnipresent and Omnipotent. The essence of being, he in whom the whole essence of life, seeing and unseeing is contained in. Now the above inference, is a preamble designed to set the tone for you to understand the unnatural/unseen, mechanics/element that is responsible for the impelling and impestus that drives the Christian man to want to reach out to the realm that is beyond his natural world. This element is the constituent nature of the afformentioned being. Seeing he has the capacity/capability to do for man things, that man naturally may not be able to do for himself. Having layed this foundation, let now define faith from a Christian/Scriptural perspective. Heb 11:1 - Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. - KJV. In laymans language this scriptural definition of faith can be simply rephrased as,,,,,... - Being sure of things we are hoping or expecting from God with a sense of certainity that, though we can't see those things yet with our physical eye, yet they exist and are real because our God has the capability and capacity to bring them about just as he has promised. So Johnydon get it, faith in Christian perspective means taking God by his word and being rest assured that he(God) will play his own part by bringing about those things that he has promised. So finally faith is not about an emotion, which drives the conviction to be stuck whether it is true or not as you have erroneuosly purported. Is Faith a trustable means of deduction? Hogwash. Definist fallacy as usual. Secondly, faith is not a virtue for deductive reasoning, but rather it is designed for accessing the spiritual nebulous. Hence, a fallacy of inconsistent comparision on your part. Imagine if scientific study worked with Faith: I cannot determine what causes these hurricanes but i believe it is the sea getting angry, i believe it by faith and i believe it's true" Trash. Fallacy of false analogy/misleading vividness. Anyone engaging in such deductive reasoning is only embarking on a journey of Tom Foolery and self inflicted ignorance. As earlier said, faith is not a tool for investigating the natural world but rather the spiritual realm. 1 Like 1 Share |
Religion / Re: Who Invented The Trinity? by nynbrada: 9:47am On May 25, 2016 |
Richirich713: Hmmm! It couldn't have been more succinctly put. This is the A,B,C of the doctrine of Trinity. Hehehe, let me advance it a little bit, TRINITY, simply means one eternal Godhead{supreme being} who has chosen to manifest or reveal himself in 3 seperate/distinct persons or being in the form of the, FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT. These three persons or individual if i my use the word, are distinct and seperate from each other but all 3 are of the same substance(divine nature) and collectively they make up the eternal Godhead. Though the term "trinity" is not found in the Bible, however, this does not in any way negate the fact that the teaching/doctrine is highly scriptural as there are a plethoral of verses in the scripture from the Old Testament through to the New, that supports and prove the validity of this doctrine. It would certainly be a puerile/effort in futility trying to engage JW's, Unitarians, Atheists and their likes on this forum on such a delicate issue as these, as experience has once shown me. No matter how much scripture you bring forth to buttress and uphold your view, they will keep regurgitating the same dumb and silly position they are wont in doing. So my advice, let them alone as this issue is a deep spiritual truth that cannot be grasped by an unregenarate/uncirumcised human heart. Shallom. |

jiggaz: My brother/other beloved brethren that might stumble into this piece of information, i just want to use this opportunity to encourage every one of us to be stedfast in the Lord and not be shaken in mind or faith by this futuristic android humanoid that man is trying to develop. The fact is simple, mortality cannot and can never create immortality - you can't give what you don't have. Immortality can only be found in God our father and our blessed saviour Christ Jesus. As the scripture also manifestly declares in 2 Timothy 1:10 - But is now made manisfest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, [size=20pt]who hath abolished death and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel[/size] The quiddity of my yarn is, a mortal man cannot produce or create an immortal being/thing. Only God who is immortal can and he has already done that by: 1 - creating the human spirit to be immortal. 2 - making immortality available to man through Christ Jesus. As the scripture above clearly shows. And i'm saying it to you that the generation of Christians that shall witness the rapture will experience this life of immortality that these slowpoke atheist scientist are ungloriously striving to achieve. Mind you, when i say these generation of Christians shall experience this life of immortality in these our destructible human body i'm not just alluding to the rapture, yes every Christian who awaits the seconding coming of our Lord Jesus Christ shall be raptured but these life of immortality i'm painting here is an encompassing/transcedent christian life of victory over death in this our mortal body. Yes some Christians shall be so spiritually developed that they shall function in this realm. Take note again, not all Christian shall experience this trancending life of immortality within this body of mortality, many Christian shall still die to rest with the Lord while awaiting the rapture but some few Christians shall attain to this knowledge of immortality/power over death in this mortal body. Let me stop here 'cos this particular teaching are spiritual meat and are not designed for babes in Christ. But the Christians in China are against it though. Well, if their faith can't handle it then i quite understand their situation. However if there is any statutory means that they can use to forestall such then they should go on with it and if there is none then there is nothing much they can do. Like i said ealier, why bother yourself that scientist want to create an android human. Lol, they can only create a replica and not original. Whatever they want to create can never be immortal because it is destrustible. As long as it can be destroyed then it cannot be immortal. Mortality cannot create immortality. Only immortality can. Even if they come close to scientifically re-engineer the human cell from dying which in turn will keep the human body from dying, though i doubt if they can achieve such feat, yet our God is not asleep as he will definitely show up and remember the angels in Genesis that tried to corrupt the human race through copulation. And like you said the rapture is at hand and the end of the world has come upon us. Lol, does this ring a bell to you about the rise of atheism in our day and time? One Russian Billionaire is also trying to create an Immortal Android Man by 2045.... and they are now in the process. They said they might finish it by 2035 or there about and will extend it to the world by 2045. The End Of Age is near, that i am very sure. My brother, come on, let him bring it on. 2 Likes |
